  • WHY DOES THE WORLD HATE ISRAEL ? - 2 years ago
    Israel stretches 424 km (263 mi) from north to south, its width ranges from 114 km (71 miles) length, to 15 km (9.3 miles) width, at its narrowest point. *Israel and New Jersey are similar in size.

    God richly blessed Ismael with an inheritance of wealth, power; princes, Dukes and Kings.

    The Covenant of the Land was with Abraham, Sarah and their seed, Isaac. It should have been sufficient, but throughout time there has been jealousy that cannot be settled. The protest= "Abraham was our father too!"

    God himself "cut the covenant" with Abraham". The sacrifice of animals was prepared, and God walked through the blood.

    Messiah's bloodline would come through Isaac. Abraham was married to Sarah. Jesus's blood came through their covenant.

    Ishmael was not the perfect Will of God. He was accepted by the permissive Will of God.

    At no time was the LAND Covenant going to be divided between Isaac and Ishmael. No compromise ever. The struggle will end at Armageddon.

    Jews, Palestinians and Gentile believers can all get inside of the Blood Covenant Jesus ratified with his blood; and become heirs of heaven.

    This world, earth, is going to be cleansed by Fire. 2 Peter 3. With Noah it was water. With Jesus, it will be burned with fire. If we choose to go with Him, we will be safe in heaven when this process happens. Jesus is the New Ark.

    He is how we survive until New Jerusalem is brought down to earth. Revelation 22_our names must be written in the Book of LIFE. Time is running out.

    We have to give up groups, titles, ancestry, polarization, doctrines, Pride, cultures, customs, beliefs etc, that separate and polarize.

    Either we're a CHRIST FOLLOWER or not.

    We do not get to tweak scripture with our own interpretations. Period. Don't ADD and don't SUBTRACT. Revelation 22. If you do, your soul is in danger. Fear God means obey His known will.

    Do not tweak scripture; His Word__JESUS.

    Thank you Mishael

    Many of us in Christ have no problem that God selected out the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob to be the bloodline of the covenant of faith and of the Messiah. Everyone in Christ has been blessed by this covenant. Sadly, so many refuse to come Him, and try to devise other ways to grab ahold of this covenant and many are deceived by wrong beliefs. But, we in Christ know that He is the only one way for everyone, even the Israelites.

    God in His perfect and wise purpose, chose it to be this way. He could have chosen Japheth's line to bring out a chosen people, or another son of Shem. But He chose the son that was the lineage of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. People should not say this is not so, as they would be arguing with the very God they wish to be under His favor.

    There are Israelites all of the world, but they may not know it or what tribe they are from since most of them did not return to the promised land after being released from captivity in Assyria. They most likely intermingled with the peoples of the regions they migrated to. Who knows, many of us may be of these lineages because of this. Those from the Judean kingdom are really the only tribes that have stuck together over the centuries. But the promise of the covenant was for all of Israel, as they were the chosen nation, not just the Jews. Yet, though of the promise, they are not exempt from needing Jesus and His salvation. He is the "door" that they all must go through to possess the kingdom of God, because the kingdom is only found in Jesus.

    I agree that the land of Israel will continue to be a sore spot for the surrounding non-Jews. As Christians, we should not despise the Jews, but we also must realize that they are very misled and wrong in their approach to God. We also must realize that they are nothing like the Israelites that became a nation after the Exodus. They have added to Scripture trough the Talmud and Mishnah. There is sanctioned occultism in the Kabbalah.

    Amen Mishael.

    The Lord Magnified his Great name through Israel and he's not done!

    Ezekiel 38:18-23.

    Jeremiah 16:14-15. Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that it shall no more be said, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;

    But, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land that I gave unto their fathers.

    God bless.
